May God's love and guidance continue to fluorish to fuel your service and leadership.

Once again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARIA!

In exercise to the monthly formation of the Parish Youth Council (PYC), a PYC meeting was held on June 14, 2026 in Parish grounds.

The said meeting was presided by KUYA BITONG as he opened the agenda to be raised and satisfied.

First of the agenda was the choosing of the new Parish Leader following the exodus of the previous one. The choice was not consummated by the council however due to limted attendance. The votation will be held digitally instead as per mandated.

In sequenece, Parish Youth Treasurer ATE MALLAINE proceeded with her treasurer report. She broke down the financial records garnered and exerted stretching from the Baliakag Formation last April up to the present. Other minor clarifications and concerns, the report was accepted.

Parish Youth Director Silvestre Canama spoke up about the sedentary participation of the youth within church affairs resulting to stagnation. He stressed that in order to gain support, the youth must be active and involved in necessary activities.

In response to that concern, the council formulated solutions and possible acxomodations to encourage and enlarge the youth representation.

Other raises also surfaced such as the preparations for the upcoming Parish Fiesta and fixed meeting schedules.

Despite the lack of network and attendance, despite adversity the PYC is sure to govern the youth to bring a bright pedestal for Santa Clara Parish.

Ever since the day you stepped in as the official words behind every scene of our little parish, you have brought joy and the very essence of literature in the church.

Aside from being the literary wizard, your contributions towards your chapel Sta. Ana Chapel Upper Sulitan and to the whole Parokya of Santa Clara stand as a testament to your unwavering faith and leadership.

Your dedication to fostering spiritual growth among the parishioners has truly anchored our community closer to God.

May that light of faith inside you never fade to continue to serve with a heart of service.

Once more, Happiest Birthday Vince Lorca we love you ❤️
